Sixth Wind [Drone Filter]

[bantorain]

Of Jack Smith is there to keep an eye on Jane Smith as part of his job, and everything else I've heard is true...

At the party, I lost my cool and almost slapped Jane for comments she was making about my father. She didn't know what she was doing, though. I had no right. But the moment I tried to slap her, a small blade manifested in my throat. I could barely talk, much less continue my confrontation.

... Instinctively, I drew my gun on her. But the look in her face... she was absolutely terrified. Drones don't show fear, right? Not that kind. It was sincere and real and... I couldn't do it. I couldn't pull the trigger. What's more, in spite of my anger, and in spite of pointing a gun at her head, she helped me. If it weren't for her making a call to the doctor, I would be dead.


... What else is there to know about Jane Smith?

See? No problem in admitting it.

That's easy enough for you to say.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Well yeah! It is easy!

[4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com]

I have a reputation to uphold.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Here of all places? Come on, Maya.

[4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com]

Well, why not?

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

Because it's not like we know anyone else here.

Besides that lunatic, I mean.

[4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com]

Yes, yes, I know.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

So... why not, right?

[4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com]

I'll think about it.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

"Think about it", she says.

[4thdimensnskrt.livejournal.com]

Yes, think about it.

[rapier-ex.livejournal.com]

That's good enough for now, I guess.
